Make sure to tell your vet if there's a store selling sick > animals too. Is it possible that no mistreatment took place, but rather that this particular litter was not of hardy genes? I do not claim to know anything about treatment of animals. But my girlfriend has 5 cats. She spoils them and two of them are somewhat sick despite that, one of them scratches itself at the base of its tail and as a result has no hair there. I think you should see how the rest of the animals are being treated at the store, and perhaps discuss the matter with the manager. Some animals have problems despite treatment. -------------------------------------*---------------------------------David W.
